The Open Spaces shawl is a new shawl design, where you’ll see the same “open spaces” openwork as in my “Open Spaces coat”, plus a bold lace edging derived from a vintage Victorian lace.

You can make this shawl in 2 sizes, using either super bulky yarn (and fewer stitches) or worsted/aran weight yarn (and a few added sts in each panel).

For the super bulky version, I used the exact same combo of several strands of yarn held together as for the matching coat.

Then for my 2nd sample I used remnants of icelandic LettLopi yarn, which is aran weight. Lots of color in this one :-)

Finally, I continued to dig through my stash and came upon enough Cascade “wool 220” to make a 3rd sample, this time in worsted weight yarn. I just love how you can arrange colors differently to make each section of the lace border pop .
